✨ Tekniske specifikationer
The name of this quirky white blend pays homage to a legendary South Australian invention: the stump-jump plough. Invented in the late 19th century, this clever device revolutionized local agriculture by allowing ploughshares to automatically ride over stubborn mallee stumps and rocks, saving countless hours of backbreaking labor. In a similar spirit of practical ingenuity, d'Arenberg's 'The Stump Jump' white blend brings together an unconventional quartet of grape varieties: Riesling, Sauvignon Blanc, Marsanne, and Roussanne. By combining the zesty, aromatic drive of the first two with the rich, textured, and stone-fruited weight of the latter two Rhône varieties, winemaker Chester Osborn crafts a wine of remarkable balance and personality. The grapes are gently pressed and cool-fermented in stainless steel to lock in the bright, expressive fruit characters, resulting in a lively, multi-dimensional white that punches far above its weight class.
🍾 Om vinhuset / producenten
d'Arenberg blev grundlagt i 1912 af Joseph Osborn og har siden udviklet sig til en af McLaren Vales mest ikoniske og traditionsrige familieejede vingårde i South Australia. Under ledelse af fjerdegenerations-vinmageren Chester Osborn arbejder vinhuset kompromisløst efter bæredygtige og traditionelle metoder, herunder certificeret økologisk og biodynamisk vindyrkning, fodtrædning af druerne samt kurvepresning. Vingården er berømt for sine finurlige vinenavne og den karakteristiske røde stribe på etiketten, og porteføljen spænder over en bred vifte af udtryksfulde vine med særligt fokus på Rhône-sorter, gamle Grenache-stokke og kraftfuld Shiraz. Signaturvine som 'The Dead Arm Shiraz' og 'The Ironstone Pressings' regnes i dag for absolutte milepæle, der forener regional dybde, kompleksitet og et fremragende lagringspotentiale.
